01 / Steps
How to do it
Secure the elastic band to a bar behind you that you will use to perform pull-ups.
Pass it around your upper back, so that it exerts force downwards and makes pull-ups more difficult to execute.
Use different bar heights and elastic band thicknesses to adjust the difficulty.
